<p>The RSCM is an ecumenical Christian charity.<br>
The core purpose of the RSCM is education.<br>

Through its educational mission the RSCM aims to encourage and inspire<br>
<ul>
<li>good use of music, above all in Christian worship; </li>
<li>the highest standards appropriate to each individual church and community, taking into account resources and  circumstances; </li>
<li>a culture of learning through practice, experience and reflection, leading to the development of both skills and understanding; </li>
<li>individuals to engage in education and training in order to serve their church or community, and to fulfil the RSCM's mission at a local level.</li>
</ul>
<h3>The RSCM as an organisation</h3>

<p>The RSCM consists of an international network of affiliated groups and
individual members, co-ordinated nationally and/or regionally through voluntary committees, 
guided, enabled and supported by an administrative staff, with an administrative centre at 
19 The Close, Salisbury. Common to everyone in the RSCM is the belief that music, and specifically 
music in worship, matters.</p>
